Automatic and managed updates workflows continue unchanged.Two app installs are no longer required.Users with Acrobat rights get those features on sign-in. ![]() Available features are determined by the licensing or activation credential rather than installing two different products.64-bit Acrobat supports the easy-to-manage Shared Device Licensing method.A single default install path that simplifies product deployment and management:.Adobe’s single-app initiative provides both Acrobat and Reader functionality via a single installer, a common default install location, and a common executable and registry hive. To streamline installs and simplify app management for large enterprise, Adobe now delivers a 64-bit Acrobat and Reader all-language (MUI) unified installer. Why deploy Acrobat 64-bit on enterprises? This article provides details on the Adobe’s Unified app installer, and some important procedures to customize the Adobe installations. ![]() The latest version of Acrobat is now available for enterprises to deploy for Windows 64-bit machines. AND ic.ExternalID = iiw.ExternalComputerID AND ic.ComplianceConnectionID = iiw.Working with a customer on VDA solution for which he wants Adobe Acrobat Reader and Enterprise on same image, I was making some research and discovered that a new way to deploy was recently provided by Adobe. AND iw.PropertyName = 'SWIDTAG_Serial_Number' AND iw.PropertyName = 'SWIDTAG_Activation_Status' AND EXISTS (SELECT * from importedInstalledWMIEvidence iiw AND iw.PropertyName = 'SWIDTAG_Product_Title' AND ic.ExternalID = iiw.ExternalComputerID AND ic.ComplianceConnectionID = iiw.ComplianceConnectionID) AND iw.PropertyName = 'SWIDTAG_Product_Version' LEFT JOIN ImportedWMIEvidence iw on iw.ExternalEvidenceID = iiw.ExternalEvidenceID EXISTS (SELECT * from importedInstalledWMIEvidence iiw INNER JOIN ImportedWMIEvidence iwm WITH (NOLOCK) on iwm.ExternalEvidenceID = iiwm.ExternalEvidenceIDĪND iwm.ComplianceConnectionID = iiwm.ComplianceConnectionID LEFT JOIN ImportedInstalledWMIEvidence iiwm WITH (NOLOCK) on iiwm.ExternalComputerID = ic.ExternalIDĪND iiwm.ComplianceConnectionID = ic.ComplianceConnectionID SELECT ic.ComputerName, iwm.*, ic.ComplianceComputerID, ic.ExternalID FROM ImportedComputer ic WITH (NOLOCK) The issue is that you can't make WMI evidences clever (for instance 21.%.20%), unless inserting them in the database. So, you could theoretically ignore the add / remove evidence and add the WMI. You are right Acrobat reader as a common add / remove program evidence, but no WMI. Can you confirm this? I can verify this with other customers. You can run the query below (you can uncomment to get only the computers where 2021 Continuous Pro exists but performance is poor) and hopefully will see many records. Hello The agent collects WMI evidences, even if there are not mapped to applications by the ARL. The first test look encouraging on our side. I would prefer we use the existing WMI evidences collected from the SWIDTags than change the agent to collect a new registry entry (by the way, thanks for your investigation, I had found the IsAcrInstalledInRdrMode in the same node but the key you provide looks good!).ĭo you see the WMI patterns I show below. Our plan is to stop using the ambiguous add/remove program evidence from Acrobat DC, add it to Acrobat Reader, and enhance the WMI evidences we use for Acrobat DC (Created from the SWIDTags that have not been systematically managed in the last versions), with the patterns below. ![]() Indeed, having Acrobat Reader and writer sharing the same add / remove is just a pain. ![]()
